An entire team must fundamentally focus on testing and operability to ensure success. Fifteen years ago, we used to physically burn software onto discs that were packaged and shipped to customers. The cost for failure in that world was enormous. So we'd spend weeks—sometimes months—testing prior to release. Once the release was shipped, we'd feel a sense of relief because there was nothing more to do. Today, we're faced with complex new challenges and risks where failure can be socially and financially catastrophic. How can teams effectively manage risk when faced with the challenges of a continuously changing and complex world? For the past five years, as a quality coach, I've helped numerous teams not just survive, but thrive, in a modern world.
In this talk, I introduce strategies to deal effectively with both the risks we can imagine and the realities we cannot. We will explore deployments as the beginning of our journey, not the end. I share the techniques and models I've developed that enable teams to move quickly without compromising quality. Attend this talk to start unlearning old ideas about testing, development, and operations. A team-wide focus on testability and operability is fundamental to happy, high-performance teams, a successful business, and satisfied customers.
